Mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) is the most common mode of HIV infection in children. In the absence of any intervention, 30% to 45% of children born to HIV positive mothers are infected with HIV. This case illustrates the successful prevention of MTCT whereby antiretroviral treatment was initiated early in pregnancy, delivery was via lower segment caesarian section (LSCS) and breastfeeding was avoided.
